Reid, who’s the managing editor of TheGrio as well as a rising star at the network via her roles as an contributor/analyst and fill-in host, will host a show at 2pm Est. that is so far unnamed.

*Farrow, the son actress Mia Farrow and actor/director/writer/producer Woody6 Allen, joined the network in October, is taking the 1pm EST timeslot with a show that also is unnamed at this point.

“Ronan and Joy are two of the most thoughtful and impressive journalists out there and I’m excited for what they will bring to the afternoon,” MSNBC’s president Phil Griffin wrote in a statement.

Lest we not forget these other moves that will go down. Tamron Hall’s program is moving to 11am EST, while Andrea Mitchell will take over the noon slot from Alex Wagner’s old show which is moving to 4pm.

Here’s the new MSNBC daytime line up which will be effective as of February 24:

*Fun fact about Ronan Farrow. According to his entry in Wikipedia, he was named after baseball player Satchel Paige and his maternal grandmother, actress Maureen O’Sullivan. He was given the surname “Farrow” to avoid a family with “one child named Allen amidst two Farrows and six Previns..”

Joy Reid is so dag gone smart that everytime I watch her on TV, I have my note pad, dictionary and history/political science books with me so I can learn something new. I’m so proud of what she represents to the up and coming generation of young Black girls. Her message is that you don’t have to shake your booties like Beyonce or warble like Jennifer in order to make a significant contribution in life for your people. You can educate yourselves by hanging out in the library rather than the night clubs. Singers, dancers and rappers are not the corner stones of a Great Civilization. The kings of europe called them “court jesters.”
